Application Description
- THIS APP SEEM NOT TO WORK WITH OS 5 -
Most people think the HotSync will save the whole data contained on the Palm
and
this is enough to restore it after a power failure or other cause for data loss.
But
the normal HotSync only saves the databases (all data/app is is internaly stored
in
databases) that has the so called "backup-bit" set. Many 3rd party
applications
that store data on the palm do not set this bit, so the data
isn´t HotSynced
(I lost many SMSs and mails this way ...).
SyncAll fixes this problem.
SyncAll sets the backupbit of all databases every time the
Palm is switched on
(needs <1 second). This causes the HotSync to save all (!) databases and
not
only some.
If you use SyncAll you could be sure to get back all the data after
a data loss .... so better use it :)

Really helpfull application for saving all your data on your palm (mine es m515).
BUT be carefull because NOT ALL should be backed up. Some things can take ages to hotsync or even hang. Use it only if you know what you are doing.

Excellent. Seems to do what it says it does. Hotsyncs take a bit longer, but on a usb cradle, it's indistinguishable. I was getting tired of my files not being backed up, and setting the backup bit manually is a pain, but this does the trick. If there were a way to manually deselect files from being backed up, it would be 5 stars.

The idea is good, but there are some applications/files that really must not have the 'backup' flag turned on, thus syncronised - HotSync hangs!! Due to this problem, I had to re-install my palm (well, I did a full backup before installing this tool)
